Just when you think it is all getting boring …

I was actually starting to wonder if life was going to move out of the fast lane for a while and make a move into the carpool lane for a couple of weeks. After the busy month at work and the fabulous vacation with GB I was starting to think that maybe for the next few weeks I would be forced to lay low, take a break, let someone else keep the dream alive for a while. Believe it or not last night I was actually happy with the thought of coming home right after work, cooking meals, watching TV and hangin with the homies while we wait for spring to really arrive.

I am sure some of you are thinking, but Single Girl don’t you want to be the life of the party, meet young boys, have fabulous adventures? Of course but sometimes a girl needs to take some time and refuel, examine her life and think about the summer of parties to come. And truth be told I am still reeling a little from my encounter with the Original Archetype and wonder if I should change a few of my habits.

But then Awesome called – well wrote on my wall in facebook actually - to see if I want to get together for drinks. Whew! Existential crisis averted, back to the shallow search for a good time and a good story.

I have varying thoughts about having drinks with Aweome;

1. I like beer, so yeah drinks sound good;
2. I like Awesome, so yeah having drinks sounds good;
3. Life in the romantic department has slowed to a dead crawl in the last while so the potential for something is good. Kissing and beer go great together (really, you should try it)
4. Awesome would be a version of the same blue eyed jerk I have been dating for the last 15 years so maybe I should work on breaking that pattern by not having drinks;
5. Do I really want to fall back into the strange vortex of seeing Awesome, then not seeing him, then thinking I am crazy, then thinking he is screening, only to have him pop back up in my life weeks after I have written him off?

What have I decided? I will probably have drinks with him anyway for the amusement factor if nothing else. He always has good stories and if I get bored I can always count the number of times he uses the word Awesome over the course of the evening. My guess somewhere around 45 … let’s make this interesting shall we fair readers? Let’s make a pool to guess how many times over two drinks (about 60 – 90 minutes) Awesome will say Awesome. Send me your best guess and for the winner … not sure yet but I am sure I can think of some mindless amusing thing for one lucky reader.

Quote of the day:

After making a cruel but funny quip about a waiter …

GB: Along the lines of if a tree falls in the forest, blah blah blah … If a gay man makes a witty albeit nasty remarks about another person but no one is around to hear it, it is still offensive?
